Diversity-oriented synthesis of polyketide natural products via iterative chemo- and stereoselective functionalization of polyenoates: development of a unified approach for the C(1-19) segments of lituarines A-C

Org Lett. 2005 Jan 6;7(1):139-42. doi: 10.1021/ol047792c.

Abstract

A unified, stereocontrolled synthesis of the C(1-19) segments of the lituarines A-C (1-3) has been achieved, highlighted by application of an iterative chemo- and stereoselective trienoate functionalization protocol, a strategy that holds considerable promise for the diversity oriented synthesis of polyketides.
